Meet the Banda Family

Tuesday, 6 December 2016

Augustine Mahlangu, a student at the Theological College of Zimbabwe, has been sharing the love of Jesus with the Banda family. Here is their testimony:

“Augustine has been an encouragement to us. We used to walk close to 25km to and from church, so being introduced to a church close to us allows us to be part of a community of believers with whom we worship and share our problems. I have come to understand that the Bible is not meant to be tailor made to suit my needs but is a way of getting to know God. As a family we have been taught – and are applying – conflict resolution, and how to be able to forgive each other and gain family cohesion through Scripture. At church, we have been given the opportunity to discover our gifts and talents and through exercising them, this has led us to grow. Mrs Banda has now memorised many verses and loves praying in the evenings. As the man of the house I am now learning how to study the Bible. I hope to get one soon and be able to also lead the Bible studies in my home.” (Kenneth Banda)
